Blade of the Heptaseas

AttackFinished item1,950g

Ambush-style physical item rewarding disengaging then landing a big first hit.

Stats

Physical Attack: +70; 160
HP: +250; 1820

Each bar is scaled against the highest value of that stat on any item in the game — the faint number at the end of the track is that maximum.

Passives and actives

Unique PassiveUnique Attribute
+15 Physical Penetration
Unique PassiveAmbush
If no damage is taken or dealt within 5 seconds (excluding from Minions or Creeps), the next Basic Attack will deal an additional 160 (+40% Total Physical Attack) Physical Damage and slow the target by 40% for 1.5 seconds.

When to build it

Not a direct counter-item; best on split-pushers and duelists who reset out of vision between fights, since Ambush needs 5 uninterrupted seconds to charge before its bonus damage and 40% slow. Weak in metas where fights never fully reset.
